WoT Movie Casting

[Nynaeve]

 

I thought you might like this. I'm personally for quite a few of those choices :)

 

 

Enjoy,

 

 

 

Nyn

[michellem]

Chase Crawford for Rand; on my personal list of favourites. One I haven't seen before, bold choice, I like it.

Thom, Bryne, very much agree.

Galad, Gawyn, they could possibly work, but not my personal picks.

Taim, oh I could see that.

 

The rest I don't really care for, I think especially for Nyn and Egwene the actors are way too told.

[Nynaeve]

I liked the choice for Moiraine for some reason. And I didn't approve of the one for Lan. That actor is super old nowadays and lacks the cool factor that Lan possesses lol

 

 

 

Nyn

I've got my own fan "casting" project going; with " " because it's not casting for a movie, but inspiration for me if I ever get good enough at digital painting to make my own series of WoT-portraits:

I'm not sure how I would feel about Chris as Rand, don't get me wrong Chris is DAMN sexy, but with red hair and all i'm just not sure about it. There is a cosplayer of Rand floating around on the internet I think he should do it. He's both hot and looks like him very much. Course who knows if he could act. *laughs*

 

Ryan would need to bulk up a lot for Perrin. I can't say he would be bad but he'd have to tone down the "i'm a comedy" actor side in order to play the serious Perrin.

 

I quite like the actors for Moiraine and Min. Even though both characters i'm generally not a fan of. OMG and YES to Hugh as Logain totally totally totally!

[Arran]

I really wish that Viggo Mortensen was a bit younger and that he hadn't already played Aragorn in LotR, I think he'd make a great Lan.

 

I think that whoever plays Rand would have to be a fantastic actor. Rand's character changes so much over the course of the series, from a young and naive farmboy to borderline insane, from a man with almost no emotions to some saintly character. There will be no "getting into character" for whoever plays Rand.

I liked RW as Moiraine a lot.  Same for Min, Nyn, and Egwene (the first one).

[Starrik]

....I think Liam Neeson should play Rhuarc.....

[Kwom Masbag]

I think he should play everybody.  The Eye of the World: Starring Liam Neeson and nobody else.

[Starrik]

I think he should play everybody.  The Eye of the World: Starring Liam Neeson and nobody else.

I agree. He should also write a movie called Liam Neeson:The Liam Neeson Story starring Liam Neeson.

 

 

 

I would watch that.

I would replace every movie in my house with that.  Every.  Last.  One.  Like, you go to open, I dunno, Seabiscuit and it's Liam Neeson sitting there staring at you.  Only I've edited the original image of Seabiscuit so it's Liam Neeson the horse riding Liam Neeson the jockey.  I'd bet on them.

[Nynaeve]

I would lecture about spamming my thread... but I really like Liam Neeson  *laughs*

 

 

 

Nyn

[Andrej]

Kevin Sorbo for Lan, definitely.

 

I like the choice for Min as well.

 

Not big on Reynolds as Perrin though... can't see him as anything other than Van Wilder

[michellem]

I really like Emile Hirsh (sp?) as Perrin, but I know a lot of people consider him too pretty:

 

[Andrej]

And scrawny

[michellem]

Well I don't think there exist any actors who naturally have Perrin's build :P

 

And of course he looks scrawny in the images from that film; he lives out in the Alaskan wild all by himself.

[Millon]

Perrin would be the hardest because of that build. I have never actually seen anyone to fit. Definitely not Ryan Reynolds though. Face just doesn't fit.

[Andrej]

What about Ryan Hurst?

[Andrej]

Forget to mention earlier, but I've actually brought up those character choices for Bryne and Thom when discussing this subject with friends. They're perfect! What do you think about Clint Eastwood for Padron Naill?

[Aiel Heart]

Wow... Some good ones in here... Will give more in depth when I have more time XD

[Daruya]

Oooh, I love Sam Elliot's gravelly voice and crooked grin. I can't remember who the video suggested he play - was it Elyas? Or Thom? I think I'd go more with Elyas, though. (I can't view the video at work so can't watch it to verify which character was suggested).

 

And I'd totally vote Liam Neeson for Rhuarc!

 

I think Tyne Daly would be a good Cadsuane.

[michellem]

I think Meryl Streep is the perfect Cadsuane.

 

[Rasheta Ardashir]

 

And I'd totally vote Liam Neeson for Rhuarc!

Wouldn't they have to tan him up a bit to play that? He's to white currently.

[AesSedaiGuy]

And scrawny

Agreed. I like Emile Hirsch, but too skinny to be Perrin.

[AesSedaiGuy]

I think Meryl Streep is the perfect Cadsuane.

 

She is the perfect everything! All we need is her and Liam Neeson.

 

The Eye of the World:A Two-Person Cinematic Event, starring Meryl Streep and Liam Neeson. :D
